The upper rack allows 2" of adjustment up or down
to accommodate large items. The upper rack may
be lowered by pushing the long flaps on each side of
the rack. This will allow you to lower the rack (see fig.
Upper Rack). To raise the rack, lift up on the rack until
the rack locks in place.
On some models, the upper rack may be adjusted to accommodate
larger items. To adjust the upper rack, fully extend the upper rack and
remove the two plastic end caps on the front of the rails. Remove the
upper rack. Select the set of rollers on the side of the rack that provides
the desired height, and reinstall the upper rack by guiding the rack
rails between the appropriate set of rollers. With the rack reinstalled,
replace the two plastic end caps, ensuring the snap is properly
engaged. Failure to properly engage the end caps may result in the
rack falling from the dishwasher.
To add flexibility in loading, the stem safe shelf
(on some models) may be placed in the up or
down position or unfolded and placed in the lower
unfolded position. The shelf may also be used to
secure stemware such as wine glasses. Because
these stemware items come in various sizes, slowly
push the rack in to ensure the items do not bump
into the edges of the dishwasher, which may cause
damage to the items.
The fold down tines (on some models) provide
flexibility for extra-large and hard-to-fit items.
The tine rows can be adjusted to a vertical or
lay-down position.
CAUTION
anticipated. To prevent minor injury or
damage to the contents, do not raise or
lower the upper rack after the rack is
loaded.
